Fantastic

I am definitely in favor of such a lending platform here on Hive. I wrote a fictional article about a Makerdao clone on Hive a few months ago, which featured a lending platform called Honeypot and a token called Honey. It was a bit corny, but the gist was very similar to this but a lot less technical in the economic theory and coding, and more focused on the trading aspects of the lending platform. I must admit I like this post better, as the lending platform you propose has evolved to a multi collateral version and one that realizes the clear conflict of interest from the MakerDao Maker token owners controlling interest rates that generate money which goes into there pocket. They no longer modify interest to stabilize the peg, they do it to make money. Even in a decentralized platform, you have to carefully incentivize the behavior you want to see.

Bitcoin Maximalist anti-inflation

You do make an interesting point I hadn't considered, the lingering ideologic restriction against token inflation of Bitcoin Maximalist influenced people who created the MakerDao limiting their ability to see the utility of inflation in all its versions. Bitcoin arose as the answer to the inflationary asset USD, so I understand the tightness of their point of view.

Marvelous

Savanah is a nice Lion natural environment name, I won't be surprised if the creator of your proposed lending platform picks that one up, and the SAV is also a natural choice.

I hope the idea of using borrowed code and a DAO grant resonates with you, as you have enough influence to have a reasonable shot at funding. The Hive Dev job bird would be a good place to start looking for employees.

There would be some trust involved, but but perhaps a CErtik audit could detect any exploits, and using borrowed code would help also.

Good Luck!
